If you play Magic: the gathering than this book can be an enjoyable and easy read. The book deals with the crew of the Weatherlight during their stay in the plane of Mercadia. When the ship crash lands on some barren farmland the remains of it are stolen by a band of Cho-Arrim warriors who believe it to be a holy symbol of special significance. The plot is not to cheesy and the story has many interesting twists and turns. Marcadian Masques will be well enjoyed by players of the game as they will understand the backstory and know who and what the characters and items are. The general public will find the book boring and possibly quite cheesy and would probably give it 2 stars. Experienced Magic players like myself will probably find it to be more like 4 or 5 stars, but i have given it a score somewhere in between the two.

A gripping novel. One of those books you can't put down.
27 Mar 2000
Format:Mass Market Paperback
I agree with another reviewer that you should read Rath and Storm before reading this book. As I play the game of Magic: The Gathering, though, I had a good idea of the backgrounds of the different characters. Starts and ends with lots of action. The mix of deception, suspense, and action wind together to produce this very adventurous novel. A must-read for Magic: The Gathering gamers.

Mercadian Masques - The last good Magic story?
18 Nov 2000
Format:Mass Market Paperback
Well, I must say...Mercadian Masques contained the most interesting story I've read since Tempest. In it you have nearly every story element that you could think of. Mystery, suspense, drama, action, adventure, comedy, Masques had it all. I won't ruin any storyline, but I will say this : Be prepared for many plot twists.
One aspect I fear about the Magic storyline is that it may all be going downhill. If you've been paying attention to the new expansion sets and blocks being released, you might realize that all of the storylines in these are based on wars of some kind. Not that is is a horrible thing, but we members of the audience need some variety in the plot, not just (insert Phyrexian bad guy here) invades the good guys. This may just be a rant, but I encourage you to take what I have said into consideration. Thank you.

Good book
12 Feb 2000
Format:Mass Market Paperback
First of all if you haven't read Rath and Storm read that before you read this otherwise the book will be very confusing. The book has several plots and the characters always get into trouble. If you don't mind fighting(Half the book is fighting) and some cussing. The autor did a great job except towards the middle of the book there is hardly any fighting. But the end of the book is totally action packed the last 50 pages are the best. The book is 341 pages long and took me a week to read it and i'm only 12.
